"Rain" lyrics

That was one hell of a storm
Almost didn't make it
Wish to God that I was warned
Before it started breaking

I'd have boarded up the windows
Ripped the pictures off the wall
I'd have battened down the hatches
Grabbed the candles and the matches
If I'd heard that siren call

Man did it rain
It came down harder with every drop
Damn did it rain
Like heaven was crying and it couldn't stop

Standing in the wreckage now
There's no way to fix it
Not the damage that it left behind
But the faith that it took with it

When the river took the flood banks
Yeah and it blew out all the lights
I was treading in the water
Sending prayers up to the Father
40 days and 40 nights

Man did it rain
It came down harder with every drop
Damn did it rain
Like heaven was crying and it couldn't stop

Oh rain, rain go away
Don't you come back someday
We've all got dues to pay
And I paid mine
Oh rain, rain what the hell
Maybe you couldn't tell
Ya fell on someone falling on a hard time

Man did it rain
It came down harder with every drop
Damn did it rain
Like heaven was crying and it couldn't stop
